production=# SELECT age(timestamp '2015-06-26 09:15:15', timestamp
'2015-06-26 02:16:00');
    age
----------
  06:59:15
(1 row)

production=# SELECT age(timestamp '2015-06-26 09:15:15', timestamp
'2015-06-20 02:16:00');
        age
-----------------
  6 days 06:59:15
(1 row)

production=# SELECT age(timestamp '2015-06-26 09:15:15', timestamp
'2014-06-20 02:16:00');
